Young Adults at World Youth Day
World Youth Day - Madrid, Spain - August 2011
"Rooted and Built Up in Jesus Christ, Firm in the Faith"
Catholic young adults from around the world will converge on Madrid, Spain, for the international celebration of World Youth Day in August 2011. Throughout the rest of the world, the word "youth" designates those in their late teens, twenties, and early thirties (while in the United States, this term has traditionally meant high school teens).
NCYAMA seeks to connect all the dioceses, parishes, college campuses, and Catholic organizations across America who are bringing young adults (18 to 35) to World Youth Day.
If you are bringing a group of young adults to Spain, we would like to know.
CONNECT WITH US: Email info@ncyama.org or call Executive Director Paul Jarzembowski at (815) 834-4047 to be put on a national list of church leaders bringing young adults to Madrid.
Throughout the next year, NCYAMA will provide some resources on ways to prepare and travel with young adults - and places for young adults to connect while in Spain in 2011. We look forward to connecting with you and meeting you for WYD 2011.
